Tetrahydrofuran → HCID 21865601, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of methyl-triphenyl phosphonium bromide (1.15 eq) in THF (0.3M) at 0° C. was added K-tOBu (1.15 eq). The resulting mixture was stirred for 30 min after which a solution of the 8-bromo-quinoline-6-carbaldehyde from Step 1 (1.0 eq) was added. The final mixture was stirred at room temperature for 12 h, poured in saturated aqueous NH4Cl and extracted with EtOAc (2×). The combined organic extracts were washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. Flash chromatography (Hex:EtOAc; 9:1) afforded the desired compound as a yellow solid.
